The Divine Symbolism of Namaskar

[Guest guest]

AUM SAI RAM

Dear All,

I thank

Brother Kumar Mahadevan for the detailed explanations of " namaskara " which he

has painstakingly given in his posting " The Divine Symbolism of Namaskar " .

In the same context, I am given to recollect

the experience of a friend which I wish to share with you.

This

friend, a young man, who was studying Information Technology in Bangalore, once heard

from other Mauritian students that Bhagawan Baba had arrived at His Brindavan

Ashram in Whitefield. He followed the others who had decided to jump into the

next bus to Whitefield. When they reached there, Baba was giving Darshan and

they, lucky guys, were allotted first line in the darshan hall.

As he sat

trembling with emotion in the first line, this young man could not help thinking

that he had eaten lunch composed of chicken before he arrived at Brindavan. In

no time, the Sweet Lord was standing in front of him and he closed his eyes,

not daring to touch the Lotus Feet. However, without uttering a word, Baba,

lovingly, pulled down the head of the young man to His Feet. Hence his forehead

touched the Lotus Feet in blissful namaskara.

With the

immense Blessings of Bhagawan Baba, this young man became an executive

member of our local Samithi in the year 2005. The unexpected chance to

perform his share of Love in action came to him as a gift from above, just as

the gift of the Divine Namaskara

At the

Lotus Feet of Sai
